drivers

VSI-FAX supports various Dialogic

Brooktrout

drivers from Dialogic Corporation

most appropriate fax solution for your needs. The two main Dialogic

Brooktrout

fax solutions that you can set up

Faxing using a fax board: Brooktrout TR1034™ or TruFax fax boards. Refer to Recommended modems and

fax boards in the VSI-FAX Recommended Modems and Fax Boards

supported boards. When faxing using an intelligent Brooktrout fax board like TR1034, you have the option to

set up Fax over IP in addition to physical faxing in PSTN mode.

SR140™ fax software solution for Fax over IP.

VSI-FAX does not support Brooktrout integration on platforms and versions that are not in the above list. While it is

possible that the software will operate properly with Brooktrout fax solution on other systems, we have not necessarily

tested our software with fax hardware on platforms that are not listed, that's why we say we do not support them.
